Kourtney Kardashian recently poked fun at her sister Kim Kardashian's well-known diamond earring mishap that occurred during a family vacation in Bora Bora. The incident, which took place during a Season 6 episode of 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians,' involved Kim losing a $75,000 diamond earring after being playfully thrown into the ocean by her then-boyfriend Kris Humphries.
While vacationing in Turks and Caicos with Kim and Khloé, Kourtney humorously referenced the memorable moment by sharing a photo of herself in a bikini swimming in the ocean, captioning it with, 'My diamond earring came off in the ocean and it’s gone.' This playful nod to the past incident sparked laughter among fans and family members alike.
In the original episode, Kim's distress over losing her earring led to a dramatic outburst, with her exclaiming, 'My earring’s gone!' before breaking down in tears. Kourtney, known for her level-headedness, famously responded with the now-iconic line, 'Kim, there’s people that are dying,' adding a touch of humor to the situation.
Despite the comedic value the incident has provided over the years, Kim has expressed her weariness of the ongoing jokes surrounding the lost earring. In a video interview, she mentioned how people still ask her about the earring whenever she is near water, indicating her desire to move past the incident.
Interestingly, Kim revealed that her younger sister Kylie Jenner was the one who ultimately found the missing earring during their Bora Bora trip. Kylie's successful search for the earring, even locating its back piece, highlighted the clarity of the ocean water in the area, putting an end to the mystery of the lost jewelry.
While Kim may be ready to leave the earring incident behind, her family continues to find humor in referencing it. Kris Jenner, their mother, even joined in on the fun by echoing Kourtney's famous line in response to the recent social media post.
